إي غيغال كوت-روتي 'لا مولين' 2009، رون

Opened this next to a St.-Joseph and it was in a different league – that deep, structured finish just kept going. The ripe fruit is beautifully balanced by the tannins, making it feel both generous and serious.

Absolutely stunning bottle – the opulence from the ripe year hits you first, then that long, dry Syrah finish with such grip. Every sip felt like a special occasion.

Opulence is the word here—sweet and rich upfront, but that dry, Syrah-ish finish keeps it grounded. Drank it blind next to a Rostaing and honestly, this had more structure and length. Glorious stuff for a ripe vintage.
